CP-468 CRC Enable
If CRC Enable (CP-468) is set to “ON” (1), you must append a CRC value to all serial communications messages that are
received by the CX-1200 (See Serial Communications: Using Serial Communications). The CX-1200 checks the CRC
value against the the message contents (excluding the “STX”), then calculates a CRC value and appends it to all serial
communications responses. If CRC Enable (CP-468) is set to “OFF” (0), the CX-1200 will ignore any CRC value that is
appended to a message and will not append a CRC value to any serial communications responses.
1 = On (Enabled)
0 = Off (Disabled)
Minimum Value: 0 Maximum Value: 1
Default Value: 1 Units: None
CP-469 Record Format
Record Format (CP-469) determines which type of data format (see list below) will be used for the serial communication.
3 = ASCII2
2 = ASCII
1 = BINARY
Minimum Value: 1 Maximum Value: 3
Default Value: 1 Units: Coded
CP-470 Device Address
Device Address (CP-470) assigns a serial communications address to the CX-1200. This number should be different
from any other units that are on the serial communications link.
Minimum Value: 1 Maximum Value: 99
Default Value: 1 Units: Address
CP-471 Baud Rate
The Baud Rate (CP-471) determines the serial communications data transfer rate (see list below) in Bits/sec. With a 10
bit frame length, the number of frame/sec would be 1/10 the Baud Rate.
1 = 300 bps = 300 Baud
2 = 600 bps = 600 Baud
3 = 1200 bps = 1200 Baud
4 = 2400 bps = 2400 Baud
5 = 4800 bps = 4800 Baud
6 = 9600 bps = 9600 Baud (default)
7 = 19200 bps = 19.2k Baud
Minimum Value: 1 Maximum Value: 7
Default Value: 6 Units: Coded
